Shrapnel Lyrics

Some love is a splinter

Falls off on its own

If you're lucky to notice it was

Ever there at all

Some love is a stab wound

You hope to come out clean

Some scar over quickly

Others fall apart at the seams

But some love will wreck ya

Fragile as a bomb

Yeah once the pin's pulled

The damage lingers on like

Shrapnel

Stuck under my skin

Fighting a battle that you

Were always gonna win

Left me with the pieces

And expect me to make peace with

Shrapnel

Some love is like poison

Lays you out for awhile

When it's out of your system

You're just glad that you survived

Some love is like fire

Get too close to the spark

Then after it burns out

You're left there in the dark

Some love will change ya

Some love can heal

I'm trying to get there

But all that I can feel is

Shrapnel

Stuck under my skin

Fighting a battle that you

Were always gonna win

Left me with the pieces

And expect me to make peace with

Shrapnel

Thought our love was an ocean

As deep as it was wide

Oh I was caught off guard

To find the water dried

You left me alone there

West of the shore line

I can almost see the ghost of me

On the other side

Shrapnel

Stuck under my skin

Fighting a battle that you

Were always gonna win

Left me with the pieces

And expect me to make peace with

Shrapnel
